RGOs
Text:
We are discussing doing an RGO on a patient of ours. He is a paraplegic, due
to a gunshot wound. He has fair plus hip extension, but poor flexors, no
active movement in his legs. He is about 25 years old. He can stand in the
parallel bars and ambulate with a swing to gait, while wearing bilateral
Quaffs. However, this is difficult for him. I am interested in hearing about
any experience that anyone has had with using an RGO on an adult and also
where I can get information on casting and fabrication. Thank you. Sincerely
Paula Martinek, CO.
